Information
This model was used to validate the Buildings.Fluid.SolarCollectors.ASHRAE93 solar collector model against TRNSYS data. Data files are used to ensure that the Buildings.Fluid.SolarCollectors.ASHRAE93 solar collector model and the TRNSYS model use the same inlet and weather conditions. The solar collector model must reference the Buildings.Fluid.SolarCollectors.Data.GlazedFlatPlate.FP_TRNSYSValidation data record when comparing model results to the stored TRNSYS results.
The solar collector temperature of the Modelica model has a spike in the morning. At this time, there is solar irradiation on the collector but no mass flow rate, which leads to an increase in temperature.
